Re-Reading: X-O Manowar #66

[xoken]

I thought we could do a book a day (that way people can read one every day or catch up on weekends), talk about it on its own, in the context of whats next, in regards to what expectations it creates and vote on how good it is. I don't have to be the one that posts everyday. If I miss a day or if someone wants to take over please do

For voting think of your single favourite comic book (not just VALIANT) as the benchmark - thats a 10 - and grade according to that.

Make sure to mention what you like'd about the book, what you didn't, what you wish they would have done, your favourite panels, lines of dialogue, little bits of trivia etc.

X-O Manowar #66

The cliff hanger from last issue is partly ignored. Then we see a scene that contradicts Rai 0, a stranger making a weird remark and Aric seeking help from the Mirages.

Virtual reality is a wonderous thing in the Valiant universe, but here it doesn't help. Neither does Aric's last attempt and we leave him close to broken.

All this illustrated with Image style art.

This story seems to come out of nowhere and really makes no sense other than it's obviously a 'what if' or another dream sequence. The writers have drug this thing out way too long now.
